Wemoto – Women’s & Men’s Clothing
Wemoto is a creative studio, run by Patrick Lotz and Stefan Golz as a company of friends with same interests, passions and mind sets. Coming from skate, music, art and street culture, their mental topic was and always will be the understanding and interaction between people. They set out to be a brand that captures subcultural influences combined with fashionable designs to create pieces that represent their values.
Since the beginning, Wemoto never followed the path of usual practices of the fashion industry. They always had their own pace and rhythm, that means: they are launching collections only twice a year and create small collaboration projects from time to time. Wemoto only produces what has been pre ordered by their customers and cover their own needs with necessary quantities. This way they avoid heavy overproduction, making sure that most of the pieces are finding their owner in the end of the season. The collections always have built on one another, which brings the benefit that garments from different seasons can be combined very well.
The design process and creative development of our collections, catalogues, photo shootings, the seasonal deliveries, warehouse and webshop shipping, all take place in their headquarter near Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Next to the studio / warehouse, they are running a small screen print workshop for special projects and quick strike actions.
When it comes to their products, Wemoto is connecting with people globally and is getting close to them by visiting their own spaces and lives. To build long term relationships with their suppliers is an important part in their definition of a sustainable value chain. they are working with a small group of partners in China, India, Germany and Portugal for more than a decade. They know each other very well and continuously visit each other on a regular basis to discuss our cooperation as an ongoing transparent relationship. Together with them, it is their goal to make Wemoto a more conscious and sustainable brand within the scope of our possibilities to act. For Wemoto, a part of its definition of sustainability is to create high quality products that can stand the test of time, that are worth to be repaired.
Wemoto’s partners run certifications as SEDEX, WRAP, SA8000, Bureau Veritas and are listed members of BSCI or the Fair Wear Foundation.

At this time, around 75% of the garments are made from organic cotton. The raw cotton yarns are certified by GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) or OC100 (Organic Content Standard 100). From winter 2022 they are using LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose for their collections. To equip the jackets and coats more sustainable, they are using SUSTANS AURA padding fibres and Teflon EcoElite top coatings instead of common, environment harming materials.
Wemoto is using certified recycled polyester fabrics inside the lined jackets and whenever it’s possible. Except the well-known wool felt quality and made in Germany virgin wool beanies, all our products are made without animal components – certified by PETA APPROVED VEGAN.
It is important to get independent control from certification bodies to ensure that the materials, products and production processes are as sustainable as they are claimed to be. “For this reason, we employ a variety of certifications. We have highlighted our current certificates that we use at the moment below.”
